HOST HOTELS& RESORTS, L.P. (NYSE:HST) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information required by this item is included in Item 2.03
below and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an
Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a
Registrant.

On March20, 2017, Host Hotels Resorts, L.P. (Host L.P.), for whom
Host Hotels Resorts, Inc. acts as sole general partner, completed
its underwritten public offering of $400 million aggregate
principal amount of its 3.875% Senior Notes due 2024 (the Series
G senior notes).

The offering of the Series G senior notes was made to an
effective shelf registration statement filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on March31, 2015, as amended
(Registration No.333-203127) (the Registration Statement), a base
prospectus, dated April23, 2015, included as part of the
registration statement, and a prospectus supplement, dated
March9, 2017, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In
connection with the filing of the prospectus supplement, we are
filing as Exhibit 5.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K an
opinion of our counsel, Latham Watkins LLP, regarding the
validity of the securities being registered.

The notes were issued to the third supplemental indenture, dated
March20, 2017 (the Supplemental Indenture), between Host L.P. and
The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the Trustee), which
supplements the indenture, dated May15, 2015 (the Base Indenture
and, as supplemented to date, the Indenture) between Host L.P.
and the Trustee. The notes pay interest semi-annually in arrears.

Optional Redemption Provisions

At any time, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days notice,
the Series G senior notes will be redeemable at Host L.P.s
option, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 50% of their
principal amount, plus a make-whole premium as set forth in the
Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding,
the applicable redemption date.

Host L.P. may also redeem the Series G senior notes within the
period beginning 60 days prior to the April1, 2024 maturity date,
in whole or in part, upon not less than 15 nor more than 60 days
notice, at a redemption price equal to 50% of the principal
amount of the Series G senior notes to be redeemed, plus accrued
and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable date of
redemption.

Restrictive Covenants

Under the terms of the Indenture, Host L.P.s ability to incur
indebtedness is subject to restrictions and the satisfaction of
various conditions, including the achievement of an
EBITDA-to-interest coverage ratio of at least 1.5x by Host L.P.
This ratio is calculated in accordance with the Indenture and
excludes from interest expense items such as call premiums and
deferred financing charges that are included in interest expense
on Host L.P.s consolidated statement of operations. In addition,
the calculation is based on Host L.P.s pro forma results for the
four prior fiscal quarters giving effect to certain transactions,
such as acquisitions, dispositions and financings, as if they
occurred at the beginning of the period. Other covenants limiting
Host L.P.s ability to incur indebtedness include maintaining
total indebtedness of less than 65% of adjusted total assets
(using undepreciated real estate values) and maintaining secured
indebtedness of less than 40% of adjusted total assets. In
addition, Host L.P. will at all times be required to maintain
total unencumbered assets of at least 150% of the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding unsecured indebtedness of Host
L.P. and its subsidiaries. So long as Host L.P. maintains the
required level of interest coverage and satisfies these and other
conditions in the Indenture, it may incur additional debt under
the Indenture.

Use of Proceeds

Host L.P. intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the
Series G senior notes to repay a portion of Host L.P.s borrowings
under its credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

The foregoing description of the Supplemental Indenture does not
purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the full text of such document, which is filed
herewith as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
